It's been over 10 years now, and this is still my favorite PS1 RPG.

If ever there was an under-appreciated game that deserves a sequel, this is it.

Lexpar · 9 months

Have they been making a bunch of ps1 RPGs over the last 10 years that have been competing? :s

ishkabibbel2000 · 9 months

My personal favorite from PS1 had to be Suikoden, by far. Unfortunately I never played Legend of Dragoon

GeilKrampus · 9 months

This is still mine as well. I just mentioned it in a post like 3 weeks ago. I wish they would re-release.

llamasama · 9 months

This + Legend of Legaia are the reasons I did terrible in middle school.

nolfclvr · 9 months

Great game. Needs to be released on PSN. I loaned my copy to a buddy years ago and never got it back.. :\

dustoman · 9 months

VOLCANO!

rabidassbaboon · 9 months

Basically, my favorite PS1-era RPG is all of them. Recently I've been playing nothing but PS1 JRPGs to catch up on some that I missed at the time and I've decided that they just don't make them like that anymore. Those really were the golden years.

Atifex · 9 months

Love you OP. I know next to NO ONE who knows this game. It makes me sad when i get blank stares.

I still have my copy of the 4 discs in pristine condition. Only thing I own that I freak out over if its misplaced.

kevin565 · 9 months

got to the 4th disc and the disc got scratched :(. good battle system and decent story, kinda got wierd at the end though

bestaa · 9 months

Second favorite here. FF VII holds my top spot.

DOGTOY_ · 9 months

Why would your favorite PS1 RPG change over 10 years? Damn, all those new PS1 releases are sure contenders to the throne of the coveted of the BlazenLumenaze's best-PS1-RPG-I'm-not-a-hiper-I-swear spot.

GeilKrampus · 9 months

Oh and SPINNING CANE!

bigwithdraw · 9 months

Why do gaming companies refuse to remake/make sequels to the solid games, (Legend of Legaia, Legend of dragoon, ff7) and instead choose to make new, terrible IP's, and terrible sequels (ff10-2, 13-2)?? It seems like such a no brainer. Every one of my friends who barley even game anymore would instantly purchase whatever system this remake/sequel was on just to play it.

My freshman room mate at college started unpacking and he pulled this game out and that's when I knew love at first sight was true.

Motafication · 9 months

The fact that I played this almost all of the way through and enjoyed myself the entire time, yet never beat it, plagues me to this day.

Nerd_Tiger · 9 months

HARPOON!

Easlay · 9 months

I will also agree to this. Easily one of my all time favorites as well.

swallin26 · 9 months

Started playing back through this over summer, on the fourth disk. Really wanna finish it now!

Zalitara · 9 months

My favorite I can't even remember the name to, I was so young and I never could beat it because it confused the living hell out of me. It started out with some guy in a castle or something and he would have flashbacks of this chick sometimes and the weapon system was a nightmare. It's my favorite because I lost it and could never finish it, it stands as "the one that got away".

vajonah · 9 months

Dude I love this game! I wish they would remake it so bad!

Nokarot · 9 months

GUST OF WIND, DANCE

This game was my favorite PS1 RPG of all time. At the age I was when I played it, I cried when Lavitz died :(

ilikecakeandpie · 9 months

It's one of the best, but my personal favorites are Xenogears and Final Fantasy Tactics.

StockmanBaxter · 9 months

Everytime I saw that title as a kid I wanted to go play starcraft.

JayJay729 · 9 months

Skies of Arcadia anyone?

mudien · 9 months

I need to go dig that game out and play it again :)

Shleppy2010 · 9 months

Agree and need to find it again :)

Taliphile · 9 months

I remember the nearby Walmart (or was it Target?) always had this and Dynasty Warriors to demo for a year. I wanted Legend of Dragoon so bad that I saved my allowance to buy it. Best choice ever. Dragon-themed fantasy warrior RPG? Add in some collectible monsters and a ninja or two and you have a melting pot of all my childhood themes.

lurklurklurkPOST · 9 months

i love this game.

IcedJashin · 9 months

i'm currently replaying it on my pc at school. it's a little less awesome compared to my memories. But i still love it!

APEdestrian · 9 months

i played the shit out of this game but i think i was to young at that time to understand how the game worked

Obi_Kwiet · 9 months

Well, there haven't been any other PS1 RPGs released in the last ten years, so it's not wonder.

WARGLBARGL · 9 months

this and vandal hearts and the 2 most underrated games from square.

BaronOshawott · 9 months

I got this game for like a dollar at a yard sale once... Now I want to go find and replay it.

Mindstarx · 9 months

Why would your favorite PS1 RPG change just because it has been 10 years? It is not like many epic RPGs have been released on the PS1 this year. Maybe if it was your favorite RPG, but it's not that bold of a statement otherwise.

tonywartooth · 9 months

Remember all those rumors of Sony making a sequel? Now I don't feel bad telling a kid Santa isn't real, that's only 1/1,000,000,000,000 as heartbreaking as what we went through.

skychasezone · 9 months

Game was intense for me as a 12 year old. This game introduced me to RPGs which I thought were lame. My younger brother's friend brought it over and I got hooked.

gamer007 · 9 months

I wish this would get released on PSN. I never had a chance to finish it.

leetlee · 9 months

dont believe i ever did beat that antidragonslayer boss. was before the days i was willing to grind

Shinikaji · 9 months

Divine Dragon Cannon GO!!!!

gliff159 · 9 months

I bought this game at gamestop YEARS ago for like $40 with ff7 and ff9 never played it

Angelusvero · 9 months

YES YES YES YES YES YES WIN WIN, I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE

skymann13 · 9 months

Playing through this again right now...love the fuck out of it.

volta_head · 9 months

I wish I could buy this on PSN but they don't have it :( and I can't find any physical copies :( :( I want to play this again so bad.

CndConnection · 9 months

First time I played this shit I was like "WTF you mean they fucken burned down my whole town! dawwmmmnnn "

Black_Mamba24 · 9 months

God I loved this game. The thing is I never beat the whole game because at the boss fight of first disc, the game always froze. My stupid cousin scratched it and I could never play any other of the discs. So believe it or not I only ever played the first disc and it was still amazing.

Stythe · 9 months

I never really saw what was so good about it. I played it and thought there was a lot of col aspects but they didn't work as a whole. Something about it just seemed contrived. I also remember finding it super cliche. More so than most JRPG's.

talontheassassin · 9 months

My old yahoo email address was based off this game

froggifyre · 9 months

All time favorite, oh the memories of having to do the ultra spinning thing for all my brothers cuz they failed at it, and the fighting system was so dope!

zobee · 9 months

In comparison to the PS1 RPGs of today... ಠ_ಠ

canondocre · 9 months

Is this an official offshoot of Final Fantasy or are Dragoon's in other mythos/games?

vicaphit · 9 months

I forgot completely about this game! Now I kinda want to play the first 2 hours of it and then ignore it for TF2.

TomorrowByStorm · 9 months

I decided to play this game after watching my brother play it for a few minutes while I was eating breakfast once because I could swear it was hearing a game say "Pimp Smack!" and I found that hilarious. I was so let down when it turned out to be "Whip Smack", but I played the game anyway because it was damn good.

Also, the first time I ever Downloaded an opening FMV song of a video game.

Dark_Souls · 9 months

Wow it has been over ten years and they still haven't released a better PS1 RPG?

sneakypure · 9 months

I really wanted to play it but after the demo was upset cuz the dragoons weren't like FF Tactics haha

MS008 · 9 months

Yes! this game was damn good. That stupid boss that decreased your levels? oh man, so many good memories.

knawlejj · 9 months

That game took second place to Azure Dreams in my PS1 library. Holy shit I loved that game.

FloTheSnucka · 9 months

Oh my god. I always mention this game to people and no one has a fucking clue what I'm talking about. I absolutely loved this game.

Spiralofourdiv · 9 months

I doubt you'll get a new favorite PS1 RPG anytime soon...

gotenibehe · 9 months

The combat system is interesting, but the translation is awful. The graphics were bad for a ps1 game. Idk why so many people love this game.

Redacorns · 9 months

Man, I've been looking for this game for ages. I miss it...glad to see someone has played it before. =D

xWhackoJacko · 9 months

MADNESSSSSS HEROOoOoOoOoOoOo

BESTGAMEEVER · 9 months

yep.

Metalheadzaid · 9 months

I have tried to play it so many times. Gotten a little ways in (through the prison and out a bit) but always the oldness of it falls into my lap. I pray they remake this game, as I've loved every Squaresoft game on the PS1 nearly (from the common FF7-9 and Chrono Cross, to Brave Fencer Musashi, Vagrant Story, and Front Mission 3), but this one game eludes my love due to it feeling straight up awkward to play.

atypicaloddity · 9 months

I fucking loved this game. But christ, they kill off a party character then replace him with a functionally identical character immediately? Ugh.

Dragenwdd · 9 months

I remember when it came out. LoD brought out people in my area that weren't even gamers, and if they were they preferred shooters and racing games. We all used to talk about what happened the night before and the crazy things we pulled off in the game ( I remember Albert's one combo being really hard for all of us to pull off to the end. )

Now I'm going to go and drag it out so I can play it again!

GDemon666 · 9 months

You win all the nostalgic game karma.I loved this game so much,I've still got a copy tucked away. I would kill a man in cold blood to see this remastered or rereleased

bkauf7 · 9 months

i only had this game on a demo disc i randomly got... i wish i had the privilege to play it... every time i go to the retro gaming store in the mall, even though the only new games they get are n64 games, i always ask to see if they received this game in stock... to this day i have no luck

SubtleMockery · 9 months

Well, you're clearly just wrong.

skyflashings · 9 months

The battle system was neat, I always prided myself on my reaction skills :)

RustySpork · 9 months

That shit was wicked fun, but it still winds up a close second to Chrono Cross for me.

zombiebunnie · 9 months

Those combos.

retrovicious · 9 months

God dammit you are awesome!

alexolivero · 9 months

Your favorite PS1 rpg? Is that really saying much?

WrittenAndDirectedBy · 9 months

Legend of Legaia also!

bandit614 · 9 months

I'm playing through it now for the first time! Awesome.

Z0MGBIE · 9 months

You say "still" like they're still making PS1 RPGs that might change your mind. lolwut

chibiken · 9 months

The only problem I had with this game is that by the end of it the dragoon transformations were quite useless. Regular attacks would deal even more damage than the divine dragoon's strongest magic...

DOGTOY_ · 9 months

Why would your favorite PS1 RPG change over 10 years? Damn, all those new PS1 releases are sure contenders to the throne of the coveted of the BlazenLumenaze's best-PS1-RPG-I'm-not-a-hiper-I-swear spot.

[deleted] · 9 months

You know, I just couldn't get into Legend of Dragoon. I think mine was Breath of Fire III.

bigbenwd · 9 months

not FFVII? Heresy.

Narfhole · 9 months

Writing was crap, though.

ramlion · 9 months

you misspelled Final Fantasy 7

tairygreene · 9 months

this was just the game for fools who didn't get Chrono Cross instead

cycopl · 9 months

Why? Did you not play many PS1 rpgs?

Tlingit_Raven · 9 months

You must have shit taste in games then, because I can't imagine a fan of any decent RPG being able to stomach that game.
